pour a bucket of ice over your head and call out three other people to do the same within 24 hours and donate to cure ALS.
Spotted this bucket down by Dave's folks house on the road near some private property of the neighbors. Must be someone took his trail cam. My theory is even on your own private property it's best to lock it to a tree.
Shot on the monthly Photo Walk Aarhus - this time about using different artefacts as filters at the loacl cemetary. Some images are, some just release.
So my nieces convinced me at Christmas that I should definitely go to the bar with them. And I decided, yes, it should be on my bucket list to dance and drink with my nieces as a single woman! Wish me luck!
I was wondering what to do with the Minion popcorn buckets I got from the movies (free when you buy popcorn!). Well, I decided to put some snacks inside for Ruffy. LOL. She sure enjoyed it. :-)
At first she was wondering why the bucket smelled SO GOOD. Her snacks stink!! To me. To her, they're heaven. LOL. But once she figured out what was going on, she stuck her head inside the bucket to get every morsel. Then you can see her blurry tongue action... she does that after eating something really tasty. LOL. Fun was had by all! Hope you enjoy. :-)
This was the other costume I wanted to do for the Halloween shoot. Yeah, yeah played out but it was one of my bucket list items to do. We first tried the blonde look to see how that work followed by the black china cut wig (as previously photographed).
A lot of fun for this outfit shoot. Might do another rendition in the near future 💅 💄
For this month’s Kickin' it Oldschool build challenge over at LUGNuts, I decided on a World War I era double build...a car modeled after an aircraft. The car is a T-Bucket Hot Rod customized from a 1919 Ford Model-T while the plane is a Fokker DR1 Triplane...the same model as the famous Red Baron. Its stark black and white color configuration matches that of the model that is at the Seattle Museum of Flight. The seats on both vehicles are a lovely dark tan while the dashboard and shifter on the T-Bucket replicates the controls onboard the aircraft. The dark grey carburetor disks matches the plane’s engine heads, the white radiator corresponds with the engine cowling, while the Iron Cross adorns both vehicles.
I grin every time I see these two posed together so I hope you enjoy viewing this double build as much as I enjoyed building them!
I built something!
I wanted to build a 1990ies toy style Tweedy Pie to go with the Deuce and the Kookie Car I built last year, so Anton can play with it, but I ended up with Marty Hollmann’s T-Bucket instead.
I started with the windscreen bit, choosing the most obvious brick, the window, glass 1x4x3x, and as I tried different ways to attach it to something, I thought why not try to attach it to the element it actually connects to? So I snapped it into a 2x4x3 window frame, Built the backrest just like it’s built on the Kookie, and I had an instant 10 bricks T-roadster body.
Funny enough this window frame bit is the main reason for me not having built Tweedy Pie yet, as it was avaliable in purple only in two sets ten years ago, and I have yet to hunt it down. Until then my Tweedy Pie will remain blue. And yes, I could paint it, but I don’t have a purple paint that matches the LEGO purple good enough.
The rest of the build is very similar to the Kookie, that is similar to the 90ies LEGO Hot Rods. Obviously.
Again I put together a whole bunch of these bandits, just to try out different colors (mostly dictated by the colors that window comes in which is not many), or different solutions for this or that, including two versions of Marty Hollmann’s car, because it can either be built with pearl gold bits for the brass stuff, or cheat like I did and just spray paint it Wheelspray gold, almost perfectly mimicking LEGO’s original metallic finish. Throw in the short hair, a head with a smirk, and the body of that Bavarian dude from Collectible Minifigs series 8(?), and you have Hollman as he appeared with his car on March 1962 issue of Hot Rod magazine, Lederhosen and all.
Sadly, these are not as tough as I’d like them to be. I insisted on using the little LEGO steering wheel, and this would hit the glass, so it needed to be mounted as low as possible, and that required a kickup in the frame, and that means that the front and rear of these cars are connected by two studs only right under the cowl. If not for the steering wheel, the chassis could be much stronger… And thinner.
I have put a photo of Beak in his little bucket before but thought I would add a few more.

On our getaway to the sierra foothills, Angels Camp area, I had no idea where to look for birds. I did a google search and the one area that looked promising was the Calaveras Big Tree National Park that boasted many woodpeckers, one being the Pileated Woodpecker!...although uncommon.
The Pileated Woodpecker was at the top of my 'bucket list' for this year! As we were getting shots of the White-headed Woodpecker my best friend Marty said she saw something large land in the shade very near to us..boy were we both excited to see this amazing bird. It kept it's distance, flying around in the forest always landing in the shade and drumming from the top of a very high sequoia tree.
Not the best quality but I' so glad I finally got this one under my belt...that means there are more to come!!!...:)

These old kitty litter containers come in handy for gardening projects. Yeah, right...as if you were wondering about the bucket. 😉
This is located on the sidewalk on the front of a building across the street from my apartment building. You have to go around it when you're walking down the street.
"Bucket List" is the challenge for Our Daily Challenge today. Its my birthday and honestly, having personally survived Covid since my last birthday, I feel my Bucket List is gratifyingly full. Of course I can always wish for more foreign travel. Oh India! My life has been blessed with riches of many kinds and I have long known it. The task now is to be mindfully thankful and kind. And when restless review memories and photos.
